Ironically, I feel less fear now that I have accepted there is no God. Didn't watch the video. But being an atheist has eased my mind for the future. I'd rather nothing happens, then have to deal with potential damnation cause of some asshole deity

Judging by your posts (which I take with a grain of salt) youre conducting a journey of spiritual discovery by mixing atheist arguments with questions of apotheosis (the #1 avoided subject of all time) ~ and would you say that the idea of being your own god has begun to appeal to you greatly? How much would you say that fiction in general has influenced those views?

All too often, I see people talk about what they think a higher power might be like or what it should be like or what it theoretically would be like.... As opposed to what it is like in reality. To put it bluntly, this is a new observation for me (relatively) and an indication that I must have made a wrong turn somewhere, so to speak.
